The SPECIFIC WORDING IS THERE in our gawdless Constitution : " no religious test shall ever be required for ANY OFFICE OR PUBLIC TRUST under these United States. " Criminal theocrats lie about our Secular Constitution. Our Iowa employee is suffering a "hostile working environment"

Courts and ACLU turn down most cases like these. ...we have been fighting IN gawd WE TRUST and prEyer to the flag since 1955 and corrupt criminal theocrat judges lawyers investigators prosecutors rarely allow us victory such as Murray v Curlett banning "reverential bible reading and ritual prayer" in public schools 1963 but 20 states go ahead and violate that stare decisis law when too few Atheist victims revisit the precedent case litigation

EEOC and Iowa Civil Rights Commission have original jurisdictions administratively unless City of Fort Madison has a local civil rights ordinance AND the perpetrators are harming Atheists off state property upon City property. .... McCarthyism runs deep perpetrated by government employees top to bottom and our local Iowa heroic Atheist needs a million dollars to live on because she will more likely suffer wrongful discharge. ..Governor Terry Branflakes is in China now and his replacement @ Terrace Hill has not offered new protection to Atheists suffering under Branflakes since 1983

@GreenAtheist ALL excellent replies - if the solution is a matter of interpretation or specific wording, the courts have yet to rule. Now we have trump/gop allowing words from the pulpit and possible donations BUT if the Supreme Court is slanted right . . . . . which is perhaps why this issue has not been b4 the SC?

@silverotter11 you nailed it....Article 6 has been minimized down to ceremonial oaths rather than a guiding secular standard for all government jobs. ...several of my cases citing Article 6 were avoided by "lack standing" illegally by corrupt theocrats on bench

@GreenAtheist There is good and evil with getting to the state level and the federal level. I've been a bit active with land and water issues in eastern WA State. I don't like Oxford commas (our permit exempt well water law has one). They make the interpretation even trickier. The whittling down of church and state lines is a very scary thing, fucking christians think nothing of killing for their belief.

The ACLU is a good suggestion But, be prepared for the possibility that your agency head may try to find any escuse to give you a hard time. But, if her or she did, you would have vcalid grounds for a lawsuit. You just have to ask yourself if you are up to the challenge.
